Internet connection drops, network remains

I have an interesting issue.

It seems my router configuration is working for other computers on my network (Windows and Mac), but not Ubuntu. I have tried to access it with my built-in wireless (Intel AC-7260) and a USB adapter (Edimax EW-7811Un).

When I connect to the network (WIFIHICKS), I am able to use it for anywhere between 30 seconds to a few minutes. After some amount of time (seemingly random), I lose the internet connection (and connection to the router web interface as well as any network activity), but am still connected to the network via the network manager.

This is the only network I have these issues with, and no one in my house seems to have the same issues. I am running a System76 computer, and don't have Windows installed, so I'm not able to test that.

Right now, I have another router plugged into the cable one (from Charter), and am running successfully off that.

Re: Internet connection drops, network remains

The parameters suggested above will become permanent ONLY if you create a .conf file with them. The method suggested in my previous post loads them only temporarily (for one session or during one driver unload-reload cycle). So it would already be ineffective if you try connecting to another network after a reboot (or after reloading the driver without parameters).

By rebooting or by reloading the driver without parameters (the parts highlighted in bold/colour), the driver will load with full support. Although if the other networks don't have support for N-channel, there is no point in enabling it.

However, if you have made it permanent following post #9 of the previously linked thread, and now wish to make it temporary again, simply delete that .conf file(s) you created -
